Title: How do I warn others about a scammer on here? Post by: Tomcat55 on August 10, 2017, 01:35:37 PM This really isn't something I want to do however recently I was scammed by an Ebay user to the tune of over £1000. While doing my background checks I found this site (So some good came of it!). I've had it confirmed by someone else of his name on here. The guy is a trusted member on here while I am a newbie so some will just see it as shit posting. Everything I have is backed up by evidence and I have taken him to the UK small claims court where he has completely ignored (Default judgement in my favour). He has also scammed at least 3 others each over £1000. There is also the possibility of a criminal investigation into him by the Police fraud squad. I have a genuine concern he is still trying to scam people possibly on here.
Do you think its ok to out someone on here? Title: Re: How do I warn others about a scammer on here? Post by: oxoboxo on August 10, 2017, 01:51:24 PM I would like to believe this is a forum. A forum of peers. If it is true as to what you have said, then I believe there should be an open discussion as to what happened with said user.
I think there should be a discussion, not an outright slam. It would be nice to hear both sides of the argument. Title: Re: How do I warn others about a scammer on here? Post by: Tomcat55 on August 10, 2017, 01:55:35 PM I've just checked his profile and he hasn't been on here since the 4th of this month. So I am not sure he would be back to say anything. He so far has ignored the court papers. :-[
Edit - I did also message him on here, it too was ignored. Title: Re: How do I warn others about a scammer on here? Post by: oxoboxo on August 10, 2017, 02:25:19 PM I am a newbie the same as you. While I have only been a member of this forum for ~1 month, it really does feel like a good active community.
Hopefully one of the elders of the community can help. Maybe a legendary member will respond to your post. Good luck Title: Re: How do I warn others about a scammer on here? Post by: Tomcat55 on August 10, 2017, 02:27:16 PM Cheers buddy Hope so!

Just do not show the users personal info, that could be a bit much maybe and maybe Doxxing not allowed here I am not sure. Title: Re: How do I warn others about a scammer on here?

Title: Re: How do I warn others about a scammer on here? Post by: Tomcat55 on August 29, 2017, 02:53:00 PM I should be fairly ok to name him now, There has been a county court judgement against him now all three cases have been won. I will have a word with my legal friends to see if its ok now to name him.
